UKIAH — A wrenching film that documents child sex slavery in Bombay no longer will be shown to Yokayo Elementary School fifth graders, Ukiah school officials said Thursday.

“It will absolutely not be shown. It’s age inappropriate,” said Troy Sherman, Ukiah Unified School District assistant superintendent of personnel.

He said school district officials were unaware teacher Stephanie Anderson was showing the documentary to her fifth grade class until the issue was raised by an outraged parent at a district board meeting this week.

He said he cannot divulge what, if any, disciplinary action would be taken against Anderson, who could not be reached for comment.

It is unclear whether Yokayo school officials knew the documentary was being shown to 10-year-olds. The principal, Daniel Hoffman, declined to comment.

Sherman said the district is investigating whether the documentary also was shown to fourth graders.

The movie, “The Day My God Died,” can be viewed on the Internet. It features interviews with girls and young women who say they were drugged, kidnapped and forced into prostitution. One said she was 7 years old when she was forced into a brothel. Refusal is not an option, according to the filmmakers. The girls are beaten, tortured and raped until they acquiesce or die, according to the film.

The film also contains grainy images captured with hidden cameras taken inside brothels, where victims reported they were confined, fed once a day and allowed to bathe once a week. In one image, girls are lined up for a client.

The documentary, aimed at raising awareness and stopping the child sex slave trade, is powerful but its content is too strong for fifth grade students, school district officials said.

“The topic, in my opinion, is just not appropriate,” said school board member Gail Monpere.

Violent police encounters in California last year led to the deaths of 157 people and six officers, the state attorney general’s office said Thursday in a report that provides the first statewide tally on police use-of-force incidents.
